2 directors per organisation is not a good idea. 1 director is per organisation is more than enough. Since the CEO will always come from a certain sub-region and some country, having 2 directors per sub region would always make that region have 3 directors at any given time. Since the CEO is full time director, his country should perhaps only get 1 director at any given time to represent the sub region. The CEO country should never have someone run to represent the non geographic since if elected, the board would end up with 3 directors from a single country that is CEO, subregion and non geo. > > Alan Barrett > > > Dear Alan, > I got your argument about number of Directors per organisation, country and region. However, the CEO being full director, with 2 directors per country, we may end up with 3 directors from one country. As board quorum is 5 directors, 2 countries can capture the organisation. On the other hand , excluding CEO, 1 per organisation, 1 per country and 2 per region will avoid such scenario. > > Yes in support of this less the organisation get captured. 1 per country, 1 per organisatioand 2 per region is rational and also promotes diversity representation. > Thank you. > - Vitus > Noah
